Boot Knife Sheath, done the correct way. Have you ever noticed that all boot knife sheaths seem to be made wrong? You know what I mean, the clip forces you to carry the knife either outside of your boot “or” if you carry it inside your boot (which makes the most sense) the handle of the knife is up against your leg instead of the soft leather being against your leg as it should be. Herein lies the serious advantage in custom leather knife sheaths … you can have it made the “right way”. On this page are a few examples of boot knife sheaths I have created. They are designed properly so that the clip holds your knife on the “inside” of your boot with a soft leather piece protecting your leg from an uncomfortable bit of friction all day long. As well, it will be much easier to draw the knife as the knife handle is easily accessible and the draw is not hampered by a piece of leather in the way. If you have a boot knife sheath that has no way of securing the knife to the sheath (a simple slip sheath) then your are in double jeopardy as the knife rubs your leg all day “and” stands the risk of falling out of the sheath. The solution? Have me make a proper boot knife sheath for you.  There are so many options and different designs for the myriad of boot knives out today that it would be impossible to create a sheath and take a picture of each. Suffice to say that any boot knife can have a proper sheath designed and built and, honestly, any knife that is of the proper design and length can work as a boot knife if the sheath is properly designed and constructed. I have made boot knife sheaths for boot knives, hunting knives (and my all time favorite) a straight razor, “ouch”! Prices start at $125.00 and go from there. These particular sheaths are made of oil tanned 5-6oz. leather and are black by nature. If you prefer a different leather or color just let me know.  DH
